I just got a 2004 Trailblazer LT with the DVD player, but no OnStar. I have a Pioneer DEH-P550MP head unit from my previous vehicle.

My headunit has the capability of RCA inputs via the IP-bus feature

i pulled out the stereo today and found that the factory DVD (RSE) is wired through a harness separate from the "standard" harness. (https://area76.com/acdelcocatalogPT1128.gif) i am assumuming the spot on the stereo is where the OnStar or CD changer would normally be attached... to this harness, there are 6 wires:

pink w/ black stripe
orange w/ black stripe
brown w/white
black w/white
green w/white
and a wire that is wrapped in black tape

basically, is there a way to convert this harness to male RCA's, or does someone know what the different colored wires do? i am also considering doing a relocation of the factory stereo, now that i found a good spot for it.

thanks in advance

upon further thnking, i am tending to believe this harness is for surround sound audio to the factory stereo (LF, RF, LR, RR, SUB channels and a common ground)...if i am mistaken, let me know..i will be pulling the DVD unit apart tomorrow to see what kind of outputs it has...

well, update -

no luck..the back of the factory DVD has the same harness.

now i need to find out what the wires actually DO, to know if i can convert it to RCA's or whatever.

if anyone knows, please let me know ASAP...thanks
